Thanks again for every one's continued support. I can feel all the good mojo coming in. Basically, therapy is focusing on building strength in my arms since that's the key to me becoming independent again. So there's lots of weight training, practicing balancing myself in a seated position, stretching and maintaining flexibility. Probably be here for another 7 weeks or so and then I'll be moving back into a private residence, though we don't know where yet. My team of doctors and therapists say I'm doing well considering how recent my injury was which is encouraging. The day to day routine doesn't change a whole lot, just a matter of working hard at my therapy and trying to get back what I can.
As I get settled into my routine here, I'll be able to see more visitors. Weekends will be a good time, since we don't do much in the way of therapy on the weekends. People who do wish to come visit, please contact my sister Molly to arrange a time @ berkeygirl@gmail.com. thanks again for all the support, I really appreciate your kind thoughts, they keep me going through the tough times.

ReplyDeleteEric sounds like your spirits are up a bit I know it is tough and scary as hell. As you know I have just been though scary health issues but am now recovering so with that said I am sure you will too it just takes time. I am in the Sharp vicinity regularly It was every day for a while All the folks I met there were great even though I kept telling them I was learning not to like them but they did make me feel better about my self and kept me thinking I would be getting better.
ReplyDeleteSo take care my friend we are all pulling for you Stu
